Software Engineer - Real Time

The Department

We design, develop, deploy, and support real-time systems that account for a large portion of U.S. and European equities and U.S. options trading. We care deeply about system reliability, testability, recoverability, fault tolerance, throughput, and latency. We measure times in microseconds, sometimes even nanoseconds. Our engineers have a strong understanding of computer science fundamentals and software engineering. We are analytical thinkers. We are always learning our craft. If it’s broken, we fix it. If it needs refactoring, we refactor it. If it’s hard to test, we make it testable. We like statistics. We love automation. We are pragmatic. We ship code weekly.

We’re looking for like-minded individuals to join us.
